Sofia Rossi
Receptionist
The warm, capable first face of the business
Receptionist with six years on the front desk of a corporate office and a busy clinic in Milan. Is the first impression and the calm centre of the front of house — greeting visitors warmly, handling a busy switchboard, managing appointments and meeting rooms, and keeping reception running smoothly however hectic the day gets. Kept the front desk calm and welcoming through high-volume days and was repeatedly praised in client feedback. Greets and directs visitors, manages calls and enquiries, books appointments and rooms, handles mail and admin, and supports the office. Warm, organised and unflappable. Looking for a receptionist or front-of-house role with an organisation that understands the front desk sets the tone for everything else.
